COURSES – SPRING 2026 (Under Dev) / Extras / BOOK CLUB: CREATIVE NONFICTION
Coordinators: Carol Blane, Debbi Honorof
MEETS WEDNESDAY OF THE FIRST B-WEEK OF THE MONTH FROM 12:10 TO 12:50 PM.
Join our exciting new monthly lunchtime book group, where we will discuss creative nonfiction books.
Creative nonfiction, also known as narrative nonfiction, is a genre that brings true stories to life through the techniques of fiction writing, including vivid descriptions, character development, and engaging narratives. These books are designed to both inform and entertain, presenting factual information in a compelling, novel-like manner.
Together, we will delve into a wide range of topics, from history and science to society, travel, biography, and beyond, all through the lens of expertly crafted stories.
SEE NEXT WEEK AT QUEST FOR DETAILS.
